I am also a wining trader. For 21 years. I don't mind paying taxes, but I don't like being lied to. Obama says that he wants to close the deficit by "taxing the rich" and "closing business tax loopholes." The CBO calculates that raising taxes on people like me will close 6% of the deficit and that closing tax loopholes will close an additional 9%. Where's the other 85% going to come from? Obama has no answer except, "tax the rich and close loopholes." Yet the CBO says that only solves 15% of the problem. Again I ask, where's the other 85% going to come from? From the tone of your response it sounds like you also support the Democrat's financial transaction tax.
Too much analysis without any facts plugged in ,read this. http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/...s-does-nothing-the-deficit-will-disappear.php
